I am looking for a cage that will have easy assembly and break down at adoption events. Is this easy for 1 person to do?

It's doable, although of course assembly/breakdown goes much faster with two people. It folds down nicely for transport or storage, and cats seem to find it comfortable. Good luck with your adoption events!

It's definitely not easy for a single person to do alone. It's possible, I've done it myself many times, but not what I would call "easy".

I don't have any issues putting it up by myself, but it can be a bit awkward. The connections can be a bit tight, a rubber mallet would make it easier to get the side panels to pop in and out.

Super easy to assemble and break down. Just make sure you push in the two square sides FIRST. Then the kennel folds easily.

It does have 4 latches that remove the top and the other 3 pieces fold on top of each other. It is not an easy fold cage, like some others. It does not easily come apart, by easy I mean in a couple of steps, but it does break down to a smaller size for storage. Mine is out most of the time, my bunny Chip uses it as his hide away, so I do not break it down often. I love the cage, it has a lot aof air flow, and it is almost square, so it is easy to stack in the car.

It's moderately easy. That is, if you are handy with a wrench and following instructions, you will be fine. It will take a few hours of uninterrupted work, and of course you will need a space big enough to lay out all the parts without animals or kids stepping on them.

Yes. the cage has castors and the cage moves easily. Just keep in mind the size- it does not fit through my doors.

Yes, as easy as it assembles, which takes 20 to 30 minutes. The first time takes a little longer. I have 13 of these and they assemble easy and consistent. That is important - the manufacturing is very uniform. If you plan on disassembling and transporting it often, be sure not to over tighten allen style bolts. Just snug them tight so you can untighten without stripping them. This crate is worth the price and superior to similar ones that look the same but lower priced.

I would advise not to break it down again once assembled because you can risk bending or breaking the wiring..It's not hard to put together it comes in panel all you have to do is line them up and screw them in..The top part of the cage comes off from the stand for easy cleaning or you can just roll the whole cage outside and clean with a water hose..I don't know what type of animal you are buying this for , but my Sugar Gliders love this cage..

Its not that hard its a two person move or an awkward one person. Its best to set it up first. Smart idea I didn't and well it wasn't so much fun putting it together which did take some time with a whining child.

This would be an excellent cage for 2. I have one Tiel and I have a friend who brings over her Pionus and the do very well together in this cage.

I'm glad you asked that question. This cage would be great for one or two parakeets, but no more than that.

I agree - no tools are needed and it snaps together in a snap! I'm not very adept at assembling things, and I thought this was easy to put together.

If I were you, I would absolutely go for the larger cage. They need a bit of room to stand up and move around ( as you know), and the extra $50 would make your "baby" so much more comfortable!

No, this version is welded together. I can't recommend it enough, though. If you do have the floor space it is the best cage because it is so easy to clean, pretty easy to put together (I am not handy and I needed very little help from the hubs) and provides plenty of space and room to put in enrichment stuff. Alright, enough raving, I promise I don't work for the company or get anything for my reviews :) .. I am just a raving fan because of the other cages we have had. The wheels do lock, by the way, I just don't know if it would be safe on a counter (and it would be pretty high up). HIH!

Maybe if you take the cage apart but the cage comes assembled and just folds up. I would make a C&C; cage with a divider for your intended use. Hope this helps :)

Absolutely, my 48lb BC mix walks into it and sleeps in it at night by is choice. He easily got out of other crates I had that were in the $200 range. His brother is fine in the other type to a degree, he chewed all the plastic. The cage you are considering doesn't have anything for chewing. It's a great cage, I highly recommend this cage, price is high but worth it!

I would say yes. It is a very nice cage. Just be prepared to put the puzzle together. No instructions.

The box it comes in is pretty easy to manuever. You will need 2 people to put it together.
